of the Official opposition and the allied premiers are by default supporting the axing of the rebate!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On April 1, the price per tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent will jump from $65 to $80, meaning residents of provinces using the federal carbon pricing system (everywhere but B.C. and Quebec) can expect to pay slightly higher prices for polluting fuels like gasoline, natural gas, and propane at the start of next month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The federal government points out that most Canadian households are actually financially benefitting from the policy as a result of the corresponding carbon rebate program, which is set to increase in April and <strong>that 80 per cent of families continue to receive more than they pay in the tax.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"560\" height=\"407\"
